Rekindling

"What good is creativity if you can't churn it out?" That was a quote hanging in an art director's cubicle where I once worked. It was silly, but it was 100% spot on. You can't be creative without creating... something.

I'm not going to bore you with the "oh, I'm still here making art" promise I made before, but I am going to try will be painting more. Starting this weekend. But like exercise, it's a lapsed habit I want to will correct.

Part of that habit will come in the form of sharing work like this...


... and this.

I want to thank all of you for sticking around and providing encouragement. Let's rekindle this fire.
